They Like How Spitzer’s Doing

The public sided with Eliot Spitzer over the legislature in the comptroller controversy, according to a Siena poll out today.

Here’s the snappy analysis:

“Spitzer’s popularity continues to steamroll along with the public, with nearly three-quarters of New York voters – including 61 percent of Republicans – having a favorable view of the Governor,” said Steven Greenberg, Siena New York Poll spokesman. “And if Spitzer were to pull an Ed Koch and ask ‘how am I doing?’ he would like what he heard.”
